Keane asks not to be considered

1184

Reports out of Ireland that Roy Keane is no longer in the running for the Celtic job are correct.  The former Sunderland and Ipswich boss asked not to be considered as Celtic have tightened their shortlist over the past few days.

The overwhelming majority of opinion on the blog and elsewhere is that Celtic would be taking an enormous risk with Roy Keane, feedback which I know has reached the club.  These decision are all risky, and there are no guarantees we will be able to do better than Roy, but I’d be prepared to take that risk.

Let me know if you would like to attend the CQN Question and Answer evening at the Manor Club, Wimbledon, on 21 June, with a confirmed line-up of Lisbon Lion, John Hughes, and our own Brogan Rogan and Auldheid, celticquicknews@gmail.com

    My information is that Hooper regrets leaving but wouldn’t come back.

     

     

    We’ll probably never know which one of us is correct.

     

     

    I’ve had a few meetings at Parkhead in the last few weeks, not only with JPT.

     

     

    I was there initially as an individual but then as a representative for another person.

    Is anyone aware of any benefits to the team that have arisen from Jim McGuinness’s input?

    WestendTim,

     

     

    I am chillaxed. I couldn’t give a flying one if we recruit the new man on the day of the first qualifier. Just so long as he’s the right man. :)

    No it is not old news, but what it is is strange news. Villa’s owner, has put the club up for sale, Lambert holding the reins in the meantime, and they want Keane to replace the recently sacked assistant. Now, unless Keane has been tapped up by the prospective new owners it just doesn’t add up. Not saying it isn’t true mind you.
